  1. Here it comes
    Another commie big man
    Here to save them
    And KILL ANYONE IN ITS WAY

  2. Good luck with *that*.

    Either march throught the amazon (logistical impossibility) or try to pass through Brazilian territory that is actually built up and inhabited (tantamount to declaring war).

    Nevermind that SouthCom has probably been itching for action for a while.

  3. I’m going to say this everytime I see an article about this, invading a sovereign nation in the Americas for oil is actually unfathomably stupid

  4. Guyana better start digging trenches and do those dragon teeths stuffs.

    Do not become the next Ukraine.

  5. Honestly question, why this decade sucks so much ?

    I feel that since 2020 we are getting way to close of a WW3 than ever

  6. isnt it kind of strange that we have barely seen any news from guyana itself on this? nothing from their politicians? nothing from guyanese (?) citizens? i know its just a small country but..

  7. If Russia-Ukraine war has shown us anything is that the might over right is more alive than ever.

  8. Look at them anti-imperialist imperialists….lmfao

    Guy with moustache that wears a beret and strong arms his country into bankruptcy with large deposits of oil wants to go to his next door neighbour that has significantly less population and land so he could take control of its oil.

    It’s basically Iraq with trees

  9. Hey who told me that referendum would mean nothing and he wouldnt do anything

  10. I know we say that South America is boring in paradox games but come on!

  11. Is it my imagination or is every other world leader a total tyrannical asshole these days?

  12. Why are these dictators thinking that they’re going to catch Dark Brandon lackin?

  13. Sabbatical on YouTube does travel videos and has visited Guyana several times. I encourage anyone to check those out who’s interested

  14. I think if actual military buildup occurs, we will see evidence of it from even public satellites and so on plus I think the US would be talking about it as well if that begins. If that starts happening I expect the US to make a pretty stern statement that if Venezuela invades, that we will intervene. The US could stop the invasion with minimal to no casualties by causing immense losses from the invading force.

  15. How does Venezuela have people for an army yet alone money to fund the army.

  16. That fat bus driver couldn’t invade Caracas

    Political farce even he doesn’t want to give US an excuse to boot his ass out!

  17. I’ve been saying it over and over again, a Sortie of F-35s with a sortie of EA-18Gs could probably handle this in one go. Wouldn’t even need an Aircraft Carrier to do it.

    Maduro is an idiot if he does anything more then grand stand.

  18. So this is how the Chavista Regime is going to end, finally.

  19. If Brazil a) wants to be seen as a major power and b) doesn’t want the US intervening in South America, Lula needs to act and act right now and not after Venezuela has steamrolled Guyana’s tiny military and occupied the Guyanese capital. If the other South American countries make it clear that they will respond militarily and not just with meetings and speeches, Venezuela will probably back down.

  20. T minus 10 min till the red hats start blaming this on joe biden

  21. Sounds like the start of a special military operation.

  22. >The war of narratives has begun. A few weeks ago, Guyana raised a flag on a small hill in Essequibo. On the day of the referendum, the Venezuelan Ministry of Communication released a video in which Indigenous people lowered the Guyanese flag and raised the Venezuelan flag. Maduro is now counterattacking with everything at his disposal. Via a special law announced Tuesday, he will create a new province or state in the territory, having already appointed a single provisional authority: Major-General Alexis Rodríguez Cabello, a deputy for the ruling United Socialist Party of Venezuela (PSUV), who will operate from the mining community of Tumeremo in Bolívar state, barely 100 kilometers (62 miles) from the town of San Martín de Turumbang in the disputed area.

    >…

    >Maduro has instructed the state oil company PDVSA to draw up a map of exploration and exploitation of the resources in Essequibo and ordered the National Assembly to draft a law prohibiting oil concessions granted by Guyana in the territorial sea to be delimited. The U.S. company Exxon Mobile has a maritime platform in the area. “We are giving three months to the companies that are exploiting resources there without Venezuelan permission to comply with the law,” he said. The Venezuelan president also asked the National Assembly to create environmental protection areas and national parks in the territory.

    Has anyone else noticed that Venezuela seems to be pushing the angle that the ‘indigenous’ people of Essequibo want Venezuelan rule, and that the area has been ‘stolen’ by ‘foreign colonisers’.

    Guyana is a country of immigrants: 40% are Indian, 30% are African, 20% are mixed-race and only 10% of the population are indigenous(of Native American ancestry). Also, being a former *British* colony, very few of them speak Spanish or have anything else in common with Venezuelans culturally.

    So Maduro seems to be planning the ethnic cleansing/forced displacement of 90% of the Guyanese population from Essequibo. This is what I’ve been afraid of the most.

  23. Wonder how the self-proclaimed “anti-imperialists” will spin this one.

  24. I feel like this has Putin written all over it…

    Guyana finds oil… signs contract with US based Exxon Mobil…

    Venezuela is friends with Russia.. now they annex part of Guyana.. now I imagine US has to decide on whether or not to do something.. taking attention away from Ukraine and Putin…

  25. Would this result in an additional major war to go along with Ukraine and Israel?

  26. This would trigger direct action from the US, hopefully brazil actually does something besides condemnation.

  27. So finally a new war? The year 2023 sucked even more than 2022

  28. This is a direct consequence of the russian’s “referendums” that haven’t been met with the sufficient reprisal by the international community. We should expect more scenigans like this from African countries (Ethiopia I am looking at you) and other russian aligned countries. The Ukrainian war is much more important than it looks
